Research Grant, 2026Expansion of the NEULARK Study, Examining the Effects of NEU-411 on LRRK2-driven Parkinson’s Patients, Into Israel
Study Rationale:
LRRK2 is a gene that plays a role in the development and progression of Parkinson's disease (PD). Mutations in the LRRK2 gene can increase the risk of developing PD...

Research Grant, 2026Differential Expression of Aging-related Genes and Co-expression with SNCA and MAPT in Parkinson’s Disease Patients and Healthy Controls
Study Rationale:
Aging is the strongest risk factor for Parkinson’s disease, yet the biological reasons behind this connection remain unclear. Our recent findings suggest that...

Summer 2025 RFP: Accelerating Biological Understanding and Translational Approaches for PD Program - Biomarkers, 2026Metabolomic Biomarkers of PD Progression
Study Rationale:
We have identified small molecules associated with altered odds of having Parkinson's disease (PD) among hundreds of metabolites measured in metabolomic analyses of...

Research Grant, 2026α-Synuclein Pathology Beyond Lewy-related Pathology: α-synuclein Oligomers and Seeding Activity in LRRK2-related Parkinson’s Disease
Study Rationale:
Parkinson's disease is caused by the buildup of a protein called α-synuclein in brain cells, and, in most patients, this protein forms large clumps called Lewy...
